Jongno-5.6 ga-dong

"Small place but very nice experience overall! The hotel itself has some basic amenities so you don’t have to worry about running out of water or needing to grab a quick coffee. Location is a few minutes walk from the subway and gwangjang market - very convenient! There are also other stores outside and near the building so you pretty much have a lot of options. Will definitely book this place back when I visit SorKor again in a few years!"

Top Jongno-5.6 ga-dong Hotel Reviews

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"This property pleasantly surprised us with its great value, convenient location, cleanliness, and friendly staff. We especially loved the indoor swimming pool and it was the perfect way to relax and unwind after a long day of shopping and sightseeing in busy Korea! We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Korea!"

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"The room was compact but if you’ve stayed at one of their hotels before, you’ll know the rooms are well layed out to maximise the space. I had a north facing room with a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace. The hotel had a convenience store next door and a stone throw away from Namdaemun market. Very handy that the viral Hotteok shop (outside the IBK bank) is only 3min away and 10min walk to the main Myeongdong shopping area. It was really convenient taking the bus from the airport to the hotel, stops at the Main Street and a short walk to the hotel. Overall the location was super convenient, close to City Hall station and walking distance to a lot of places of interest."
